Why is the Create CvP files (Generate output_file.periph.pof and output_file.core.rbf) option greyed out in the Convert Programming File utility?

Environment

    Quartus® II Software
BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT
Description

The Create CvP files option is greyed out in the Quartus® II software Convert Programming File utility until a Configuration via Protocol (CvP) enabled input file to convert is added.

In the Input files to convert section at the bottom of the Convert Programming Files utility, select SOF Data, and click Add File to add your CvP enabled compiled project .sof.

You will then be able to select and enable Create  CvP files (Auto-generated output_file.periph.pof and output_file.core.rbf).

Resolution

This problem has been fixed in the Quartus® II software version 12.1.1 and onwards.
